Metric Declaration for Application Insights "Resource Type" is not valid

[mgLearningAccount2]

Report

I have installed docker in my local system to connect with Prometheus (application installed) locally as well without any use of kubernetes ( like AKS) to scrap data form Azure AppInsight, just to make simulate simple data scrap scenario locally.

I have configured the metric-declaration.yml file with tenantId, SubscriptionId, resourcegroup name along with the metric data as well and also configuring runtime.yml with AppInsight telemetry with instrumentation key.

I have ran the below code to window cmd prompt,

docker run -d -p 8999:80 --name promitor-agent-scraper --env AUTH_APPKEY=xxxxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx --volume c:/promitor/metrics-declaration.yaml:/config/metrics-declaration.yaml --volume c:/promitor/runtime.yaml:/config/runtime.yaml ghcr.io/tomkerkhove/promitor-agent-scraper:2.5.0

(note: AUTH_APPKEY is seem to be valid one and doc link represent incorrect )

My container is created but facing an issue stating that "resouceType" in metric-declaration.yml file is not valid.

Expected Behavior

The value given to the "resouceType" is valid as per the link from Promitor. And this initial validation output should result in success. which is the excepted Behavior.

Actual Behavior

But Instead the resourceType: ApplicationInsights is resulting in,
Error 20:19: 'ApplicationInsights' is not a valid value for 'resourceType'.

Steps to Reproduce the Problem

1. Install Docker into your local machine.

2. Create folder for runtime & metric-declaration.yml files.

3. Configure the file with required value from the azure app insight.

4. Run docker command,
   docker run -d -p 8999:80 --name promitor-agent-scraper --env AUTH_APPKEY=xxxxxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxx --volume c:/promitor/metrics-declaration.yaml:/config/metrics-declaration.yaml --volume c:/promitor/runtime.yaml:/config/runtime.yaml ghcr.io/tomkerkhove/promitor-agent-scraper:2.5.0

5. once the container is created check log or navigate to the docker desktop application and click on status and select log.

Hi,

Application Insights is only available as of v2.6 (see docs) but you are using v2.5. Can you change the version you are using please?
